    BF4F384A-2684-4BEE-8911-0170A5C5894C.jpeg This is one of the 4 X410s I acquired a few months ago, this one is an X410A and is in the best condition of the four. I’m tempted to hold on to this one and John and I intend having a go at lighting it up soon. We need to test John’s handiwork with the added tube and filter fitted under the control cock. Is there anything we need to be aware of before having a go at lighting this model?

    Gosh Jean, that’s a Bonny lamp! I think the only thing to be aware of is the collective envy of many other lampies....

    A somewhat green Stevie.

    Jean, how on earth do you do it? Most of us would be over the moon to have found one example of such a fine lamp and you casually say that you found 4 all at the same time! Whatever the lamp equivalent of green fingers is, you have that in abundance!
